Office Pool Hosting.

Built by a commissioner.

Tilt is pool hosting for commissioners: picks, locks, scoring and standings, built around your fun, weird or sticky rules. Running a good pool on spreadsheets, manual scoring and email used to eat your weekend. Not anymore.

The pool that started it

Tilt started as one pool.

It ran on spreadsheets, PDFs, faxes and phone calls. The rules were fun, not conventional, and players got the pool in one message from the host. The hard part was everything after: locking picks on time, grading without mistakes, posting standings before anyone asked, and answering “did my pick go through?” forty times a week.

Every feature in Tilt is something a pool host needs now, or will as the pool grows. Keep your rules. Get your weekend back.

What Tilt does

Tilt hosts the pool. You commission it. Your rules. Your format.

Picks
Players sign in with Google or a one-time email code. No app. Picks lock on your schedule, per game or weekly.
Scoring
Games grade as they finish. Standings update live. Ties break the way you decide.
Your rules
Formats, lock times, push rules, tiebreakers, multi-entry, missed picks. Settings, not presets.
Standings
A leaderboard your players actually check, on their phone, without asking you.
What If
Players see what they need from the games still to play.

How it's built

Tilt is built and run by one person, a commissioner, like you.

A small set of founding pools shapes every release. We love feedback. If something’s wrong on a Sunday, the person who built it is the one fixing it.

Who it's for

Tilt is for the person who runs the pool. Not the player, not the league: the commissioner. The pool host.

If you run an NFL pool, or a PGA pool for friends, coworkers, or a bar, and the season costs you more Sundays than it should, Tilt was built for exactly you. Founding commissioners this season run pools that pick every game against the spread, pick five games a week, and pick five a week toward pods with their own payouts.

What Tilt doesn't do

Tilt never touches the money.

Entry fees, payouts, and the pot stay exactly where they’ve always been: with the commissioner. Tilt takes no cut, holds no funds, and processes no payments. It is not a betting product and does not operate as one. Tilt is the software layer for a pool you already run.
